2010 Red Bull Indianapolis Grand Prix (EP11)
Résumé de l'épisode 11
An American rider gave the home crowd plenty to cheer about as the Championship Leader failed to keep his incredible finishing record. Starting from the second row Pedrosa was on the pace early on and by lap two he was in second position, as he set his sights on Ben Spies. On the end of the seventh lap the Spaniard overtook the rookie on the start/finish straight and never relinquished the lead, eventually crossing the line 3.575s clear. Spies started from pole – the first of his MotoGP career – and capped off a great weekend by finishing second. Completing the podium was Championship leader Lorenzo who had started from second on the grid but dropped to fifth at the start of the race. But the Spaniard soon battled his way past Andrea Dovizioso and into third just before the midway point of the race, finishing just over three seconds off Spies as his phenomenal record of having placed in the top two in every race this season was finally broken. A complicated weekend for Valentino Rossi ended with the reigning World Champion placing fourth in the race, as he won the battle of the Italians with Dovizioso who took fifth. In Moto2 Toni Elias battled the heat and a fever to take the win in the second race after the first was red flagged. In 125cc Nico Terol took the win in an eventful race that saw Marc Marquez crash out while leading.
